when you wake

i look into your bedroom door
and i don't make a sound
i see you curled up in your blanket
with that peaceful smile

sleep my little child
and the world can't do you harm
sleep my little child
and tomorrow will be a charm
and when you wake
i will be around

there's so many things i wanna say to you
but just so little time
seems like yesterday you were still learning to walk but
now it's time to fly


sleep my little child
and the world can't do you harm
sleep my little child
and tomorrow will be a charm
and when you wake
i will be around

to watch you fly
to watch you fly
away across the sky
and when the nights they grow cold
you know where to go
when you feel all alone
you can always come home

where you'll be
safe and sound
and when you wake
i will be around
